Chapter 220 Next Round
" Blissful Desires Secret Arts!"
Bai Chunmei's daggers swung as they created a beautiful threadwork across the stage. However, Ming Yuexin's sword glazed with purest flames, cutting down the threads with ease.
As her sword was about to stab Bai Chunmei, Ming Yuexin's expression changed as she saw her sword stabbing empty air.
" What? I am here."
" You!"
Ming Yuexin sliced her sword, but she felt a dangerous presence from the other side. Using her flames, she jumped back as a swift dagger passed by her neck.
" Not bad! You got some sharp senses."
Bai Chunmei's figure appeared in front of her like a ghost, his pair of daggers shone with a strange green light.
" This… Sensory illusions!" Ming Yuexin rubbed her forehead as she snorted.
" Oh my, How perspective." Bai Chunmei let out an effeminate laugh. " Indeed, This is our sect's Blissful Desires Demonic Art's true power."
" As a swordmaster, Let's see what you will do when your five senses turn into your own enemies."
Ming Yuexin sensed a presence from behind as she turned around, slashing out her sword. However, a palm hit her from the side, making Ming Yuexin push to the edge of the stage.
" Ugh, This bastard…" Ming Yuexin clenched her teeth. She could no longer trust her eyes, her ears, or any of her senses, as Bai Chunmei's technique was affecting her five senses.
However, suddenly, a flash of clarity appeared in Ming Yuexin's eyes as she closed her eyes, raising her sword.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt" Futile efforts!"
Bai Chunmei's voice rang from everywhere, But Ming Yuexin didn't hesitate as she slashed out her sword.
*DING DING DING!*
To everyone's surprise, Ming Yuexin managed to block all the attacks of Bai Chunmei with her eyes closed. Bai Chunmei's expression turned dark as he was suppressed by Ming Yuexin's sharp sword intent.
" Impossible! How can you act freely with my mental retrains of my technique?"
" Even if you block my five senses, how can you block the sense of my sword?" Ming Yuexin snorted as she raised her sword. The crimson sword shone with a brilliance as dozen blazing swords like its replica swirled around Ming Yuexin.
" Scorching Summer Sword Art! Thousand Rays of Sun!"
The blazing swords turned into light rays as they shot toward Bai Chunmei. Bai Chunmei hastily pulled out a talisman and ripped it.
*BOOOM!*
A purple crystal shield appeared around Bai Chunmei as it blocked the attack of Ming Yuexin.
" Hmph, Using Crystal Shield Talisman, You think it will stop me?" Ming Yuexin snorted as she used her attack to break the crystal shield. But suddenly, the shield cracked as a flash of light appeared.
" Urghh!"
Ming Yuexin cried in pain as she retreated several steps. Her waist, which was attacking by Bai Chunmei before turned into a purple spot as it started to spread across her body slowly.
Looking at Bai Chunmei, his left was was slowly rotting with a purple aura, only skin remained on his bony hands. " Hehe, Finally! You are struck with my Blissful Demon Poison!"
Ming Yuexin cursed as he saw Bai Chunmei holding a small needle in his left hand. After use, the needle slowly melted. It was obviously a one-time-use item and a lethal one.
" Now, You will slowly die in agony. Every muscle will rot inside you, leaving only this beautiful skin for me."
" But of course, if you kneel and lick my shoes and admit your defeat, I may give you relief from this pain."
Ming Yuexin's vision turned blurry as she felt a strange pain creeping up from her waist. However, remembering Long Ming's words, she backed away and swallowed a pill.
" Haha, You think ordinary detoxification pills can help you?: Bai Chunmei snorted. " Give up and better start licking my boots."
" Well, Ordinary pills can't…" Ming Yuexin took a deep breath as she clenched her sword. The Royal grade weapon shone with a blood red flame, similar to the eyes of Ming Yuexin. Her aura rose rapidly as the sword turned into a pillar of blood flames.
" This…This!!" Bai Chunmei was shocked as he backed away. " You…You aren't affected by poison?!"
" Scorching Summer Sword Art! Scorching Wave Burns The Earth!"
The pillar of flame turned into a gigantic divine sword as it manifested above her. Her sword intent and intent of fire erupted, turning the illusory flaming sword into reality.
Wielding such a giant sword, Ming Yuexin showed no discomfort. However, even the crowd outside the aren could feel the sharpness of the sword and the heat of the flames.
As the sword descended, the stage cracked. Bai Chunmei used another talisman to block it, but it shattered in an instant.
*BOOM*
The entire stage filled with crimson flame as a figure shot out of the stage, landing on the ground like a burning charcoal. The disciples of Blissful Heaven Temple hurried as they put out the fire.
" This round, Ming Yuexin wins!"
Ming Yuexin took a deep breath as she landed on her trembling feet. Suddenly, she felt someone was holding her waist.
" Qinglian, You are worrying too much." Ming Yuexin smiled at Mu Qinglian.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm" You… Are you alright, Sister Ming?" Mu Qinglian hurriedly brought her back to the camp.
" This… This is a Blissful Demonic Poison of Blissful Heaven Temple." Meng Zhi knitted her brows. " But thankfully, it got neutralized a lot the moment it started to spread."
" All thanks to Brother Long." Ming Yuexin smiled lightly as she got up. " His anti toxin pill really helped me a lot."
" Blissful Heaven Temple's Mo Zhu Suo Lin used poison against Lin Xie during wine gathering." Long Ming sighed. " Therefore, I had to prepare for such things."
" You are thoughtful as usual." Meng Zhi nodded. " But, Meng Zhi needed to refine away the remaining poison. Else she won't be able to perform well in her next match."
" Don't worry, I will help her." Xia Yuqing walked forward and sat behind Ming Yuexin. " You did well, Ming Yuexin."
" Thank you for the praise, Sect Master." Ming Yuexin cupped her fist as she bowed. She could feel Xia Yuqing using her power to slowly destroy the remaining poisons in her body.
" That's rather thoughtful of you." Mu Qinglian stood with Long Ming as she spoke.
Rubbing his forehead, Long Ming smiled. " Just say… I had a premonition. It's good that I was prepared. However, the other sects might try to do the same or worse. Especially Sky Martial Tower."
In fact, Long Ming used his Temporal Fate Simulation technique for a brief moment which confused his spiritual qi. However, he caught the glimpse of this happening.
" I know." Mu Qinglian looked in the direction of Sky Martial Tower. " However, You did one thing well."
" What?"
" Wiping out the true and chosen disciples of various sects and houses." Mu Qinglian glanced at them.
" So you really thought it was me and not the Pale Mountain Abyss Monster?" Long Ming pouted.
" Sure, As you say." Mu Qinglian pursed her lips.
After three rounds, Lin Xie, Chen Yin, Shui Huan, Luo Yingying, Ming Yuexin, Mu Qinglian, and Long Ming remained and a few other disciples remained.
" Well, The real match starts from here."
